Actually Word2003 and Word2007 get along together quite nicely. I have
both installed and use both nearly everyday. You don't need to set a
restore point (but I don't suppose it is a bad idea). Graham Mayor has
some pointers for running both applications together
http://www.gmayor.com/Toolbars_in_word_2007.htm. If you read that first
you shouldn't have any problems.

I see that you have decided to persevere, stick with Word2007 awhile
longer, and shelve the profanity ;-)

This time I can commiserate with you over your angst. For whatever
reason the developers haven't included File Name or File and Path
into the collection of built-in footer gallery buidling blocks. All
is not lost. You can easily resolve this to your satisfaction.

Create and save a new blank document. Name it anything and save it
anywhere. Then click in the footer, press CTRL+F9, and in the field
code brackets that appear type FileName \p. Right click the field
and press "Update field" then toggle field code.

Now select the entire text and paragraph mark. On the Insert Tab,
click the Header & Footer Group, then click the Footer control. At
the bottom of the gallery that appear click "Save selection to
footer gallery." Follow the prompts in the dialog to create and save
the new building block item. In the future, the item will appear in
that gallery. For more on Word2007 building blocks see:

Okay, searched for 15 minutes and still can't figure out how to do
this.
I want to insert the filename and path into a footer. In Word 2003,
there was a function that popped up when you inserted a footer that
allowed you to select pre-determined info to insert in the footer --
date, page number, filename, filename and path, author, etc.

Where is this in Word 2007???

Thanks.

Thanks.

I did it -- lot of work.

What will happen if I stick my original Word 2003 CD in the computer
and install Word 2003 -- will I crash my system, screw up Word 2007
-- or -- will it simply install Word 2003 so I can use it and not use
2007??
Or maybe I should try it and see what happens -- set a restore point
to return to in case it turns out bad.

Thanks.
